Donald Houston(1923-1991)

Sandy-haired Welsh actor who served in the RAF during World War II and hit pay dirt and stardom with his first two British films, The Blue Lagoon (1949) with Jean Simmons, and A Run for Your Money (1949) with Sir Alec Guinness, maintaining his career with lesser distinction in bawdy comedies and melodramas. His characters were authority figures, often military in war movies like Yangtse Incident: The Story of H.M.S. Amethyst (1957), The Longest Day (1962) and Đột Kích Tổ Đại Bàng (1968) (the latter with Richard Burton).
